The FBI has been busy in Ohio, they got him, another cincy councilmember before, and Toledo’s council got busted a year ago or so too.
Ohio recently had a re-do election because the courts kept on striking down republican voting districts.
It wasnt advertised till the day of the re-do so of course practically no one showed. Voting is a complete scam.
Corruption in Ohio's cities is nothing new. People just don't know about it because it's overshadowed by places like Chicago.
Cleveland has been particularly corrupt for ages, there's a reason it votes Democratic so consistently. There was actually a decent (I'd give it a B/B-) movie called KIll The Irishman regarding a rather famous period of time where there was a mob war going on in the 1960's, and yes, ethnic tension between the Irish and Italians fed into it. Every part of the government had ties to the mob, literally 100%. If you were in government, you got contacted by the mob. The cops in "The Flats" district not only demanded protection money from business owners, but also got put on the mob's payroll as well, collecting mob payoffs for them by the same business owners.
The cops were so fucking dirty that you had to bribe them personally, then bribe the mob, who were already paying them!
